Join us for "The Faces of Love," a free concert featuring mezzo soprano Alejandra Sandoval-Montañez, pianist Robert Nance, and guitarist Cote Godoy. The repertoire includes well-known pieces, as well as obscure gems in English, Spanish, and French. The concert is an exploration of love's many facets, told through opera, art song, musical theatre, jazz, and boleros. This Plymouth Music Series performance begins in the church sanctuary at 2 pm.

Adult chapel class resumes on Sunday, September 7, with a special, intergenerational session! All adults are invited to go upstairs to the Sunday School classroom where Sunday School director Katie Watson will lead children AND adults in an exploration on the theme of the Good Shepherd. There will be no Zoom option for this session. Chapel class is open to all adults at 9 am on Sunday mornings. 

On September 7, we will have our annual resource faire after worship in the Folsom Room. There will be tables set up on the different ministries and programs that occur in the life of the church. This faire gives the members and friends the opportunity to see what all is going on, find where they might want to plug in, and ask volunteers from that ministry any questions. There is a sign-up sheet in the Folsom Room that we’re asking the various ministries, committees, etc. to fill out to indicate they will be present and need to reserve a table. We look forward to seeing you there!

The next book for Plymouth's Women's Book Group (WBG) will be Girl Braiding Her Hair by Marta Molnar.

"By the time Suzanne Valadon was 15 years old, she had been a horse walker, a milliner’s assistant, a funeral wreath maker, and a circus acrobat (among other adventures). Then she became a sought-after model, painted by the greatest of the great. Paris celebrated her - until she decided to take up the brush herself ..."

We meet on the third Tuesday of each month in the Amistad room at noon. Any self-identifying woman is welcome to join us on a drop-in basis or for a longer term.

Other upcoming books are Doppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World by Naomi Klein and The Tobacco Wives by Adele Myers.

Have you thought about developing new friendships among those you see at church? This Fall is the perfect time to join a "Food 'n' Fun" dinner group of eight to plan monthly events while making new friends.

Groups will consist of couples and singles of all ages, assigned by a committee. Each group will plan up to eight monthly gatherings from October through May. They may include pitch-ins, picnics, restaurants, or a progressive dinner. Games, a scavenger hunt, and other activities could be included as well. Each group creates what appeals to it.

Sign up for "Food 'n' Fun" and new friendships in the Folsom Room or at the link below until September 21. Group assignments will be distributed Sunday, September 28 in the Folsom Room following worship.
